Façade Zip Screen
Zip screen on a façade: the sun is cut before the glass with exterior shading; heat control and screen comfort on wide glass and storefront façades.
Façade Zip Screen Analysis
The façade zip screen is an exterior shading system: the sun is cut on the exterior plane before it reaches the glass surface — it does the heat control the interior blind cannot. It is the most effective sun management on wide glass and storefront façades; the retracted cassette opens the façade completely.
Before the Glass
The sun heat is cut on the exterior plane before entering inside; the most effective heat control.
Wide Glass
It works in a single piece on large storefronts and façades; no intermediate support is needed.
View
The screen fabric preserves the view from inside to outside; the inside is cut from outside.
Open Mode
The retracted cassette opens the façade completely.
Cutting the sun outside on the façade
The interior blind filters the sun after it has entered inside; the zip on the façade cuts the sun before the glass — the heat load never enters inside. This technical difference is the most effective heat control.
On wide glass and storefronts the side-channelled fabric works in a single piece; the screen variant preserves the view from inside.
When the cassette retracts the façade opens completely; the building look is preserved.
